I love the contrasting greens and blues of this adorable sand and water table. Multiple kiddos can splash and build at once. There are two sides, one for water (around 3 gallons), and one for sand (up to 10 gallons).

This sand and water table is unique because it is bigger than most others on this list. Which means more kiddos, more sand, more water, and more fun. Aside from sand-play accessories, other features include a sun-shield umbrella and lid.

Handcrafted with toddlers in mind, this cute sand and water table is small with two distinct stations for pretend-play fun. The table center features a mixing tower with two Little Tikes characters and two curvy character-sized waterslides. Includes snap-down lid.

This sand and water table—known as Splash and Scoop Bay—includes the usual neat-o features, but there are a few additional awesome accessories. There is a water tower, complete with a spiraling slide, as well shark scoop and spinner.

And another from LIttle Tikes comes in 5th of the top picks in sand and water tables for kids in 2017 – with their Treasure Hunttable.

Original in design, this sand and water table is a bit different. The table itself is devoted to sand, while the deep lid flips over to double as a water basin. The wow-worthy bright colors compliment the treasure hunt theme.

The name of this sand and water table, Shady Oasis, makes me think of warm beaches, crystalline oceans, and summertime sunshine. The sand area holds 40 pounds of sand, while the water basin accommodates 3 gallons. Includes a removable umbrella.

Ideal for classrooms, both public and homeschool—these sand and water stations are deep with smooth edges. Both stations are set on durable steel legs, and lids for overnight storage. Great for building fine motor skills and encouraging imaginative interaction.

Featuring a unique bubble blower (powered with 4 AAA batteries – not included), the Splash Water Table is a two-person station of imaginative fun. Instead of combining sand and water, kids can use the basin for either/or, both indoors and outdoors.

Specific for sand, this play table is a castle-building station that accommodates 30 pounds of pure sand. Kids can use a bit of water to mash the sand into buildable ‘dough.’ Comes with sandcastle-building equipment, like cups, shovels, and strainers.

And – 2017’s final pick among the top ten sand and water tables for kids is from Children’s Factory.

Another must-have for classroom learning, the Sensory Table is a reliable, sturdy tub that kids can use for their own sandy treasure hunt. Simply hide a few faux coins and let the digging begin. Includes interlocking casters for snap-together fun.
